With the advancement of the electrification transformation of automobiles, major car manufacturers have accelerated the research and development and testing of their own electric vehicles, including the German luxury brand Audi. Previously, it was reported that Audi will launch a new pure electric model, the Audi Q6 e-tron, in the near future, and the relevant test spy photos have been exposed many times. However, according to foreign media reports recently, in addition to the ordinary version of audi Q6e-tron, Audi also intends to launch a performance version of the model RS Q6 e-tron, which may be released together with the ordinary version in 2023.

Based on the exposed images, it can be seen that the two Audi Q6 e-tron test prototypes tested on the road have different body kits, one of which looks more sporty. As can be seen, the front bumper of the test car adopts a closed grille design, but the front face of the car has a similar air intake under the split headlights of the RS model. At the same time, the car's large wheels are also hidden with brake discs with red calipers. While the car added camouflage to hide details, we could guess around the body or add a wrapping strip with color to make it look more sporty.
The Audi Q6 e-tron will be based on a PPE architecture platform developed in collaboration with Porsche, which will also be used in the electrically-only Porsche Macan. This means that Audi's RS Motion engineers can easily get a high level of performance from the platform. According to the latest news, the Audi RSQ6 e-tron will be driven by dual motors front and rear, with a maximum power of 500-600 horsepower, and will be a strong competitor to the Maserati Gregale Folgore and BMW iX M60. In addition to the RSQ6 e-tron, this set of powertrains may also be installed on the RS6 e-tron.
